Vít Neznal's MA thesis called The Image and the Word deals with images and words as the two primary means of representation and elaborates on Neznal's bachelor thesis, in which he examined their articulation through the medium of theatre. The author first interprets the nature ? identity of image and representation with regards to general esthetic categories (mimesis, intentional object, simulacrum), and goes on to focus on their specific manifestations within individual artistic domains (painting, photography, film, theatre), basing his analysis on the framework of numerous theoretical concepts (structural-semiotic discourse, the "esthetics of the performative," the "ontological principle," etc.). The author then reflects on the word, while keeping his previous conclusions in mind, mainly within the context of theatre. His central theme is the identity of the image, or representation. This influenced his choice of examples. The analyzed works are mainly connected through an exploration of the limits of representation and through the thematization of their artistic language.
